Spineless-laugh is reblogging like every post from this blog getting mad at me.

And apparently I’m a super terrible person for interpreting Hermione as biracial.

And they have Aspergers too so I’m like jfc you are embarrasing the Aspie community, please stop.

I know this sounds awful but please send me nice messages so I know that this blog is appreaciated and isn’t just me wasting my time.

You fuel me. Seriously, how old are you? Also, “you’re making your group look bad” is derailing, didn’t you know that? It’s like super not cool.

“Why Don’t You Focus On Real Problems In The World?”

dahlpengee:

Do people not realize that white-washing in media IS a real life problem? People all over the world have access to media, and what’s portrayed shapes the way they look at the world/themselves. If you show People of Color white-washed images of characters that are supposed to look like them they’re going to think they’re not good enough and it can possibly effect their self esteem.  So yes, white-washing is a real problem in the world.

White-“washing” on tumblr RP blogs, on the other hand = not so much a real-life problem.

thedailywhat: Obama Revelation of the Day: In Pulitzer Prize-winner David Maraniss’ new book, Barack Obama: The Story, we get quite the insight into the president’s bullying, pot-smoking past. Money quote: Barry also had a knack for interceptions. When a joint was making the rounds, he often elbowed his way in, out of turn, shouted “Intercepted!,” and took an extra hit. No one seemed to mind. [buzzfeed] Ha ha ha! Is this a real story, though? :D

uncdan: radetzkymarch: snikette: rurone: thedailywhat: Comic Book Boycott of the Day: Conservative group One Million Moms is at it again, directing its not-quite-a-million members to boycott Marvel and DC Comics due to recent announcements from both companies about their futures of their gay characters. DC has revealed that a major character is soon going to come out as gay, while Marvel announced the engagement of superhero Northstar to his boyfriend, Kyle. These events don’t sit will with One Million Moms, whose anti-gay agenda has also led them to protest the wedding of Archie Comics’ first gay character, Kevin Keller. “Children desire to be just like superheroes,” said the group in a statement. “Children mimic superhero actions and even dress up in costumes to resemble these characters as much as possible. Can you imagine little boys saying, ‘I want a boyfriend or husband like X-Men?’” The statement goes on to accuse the publishers of trying to “indoctrate [sic] impressionable young minds.” Marvel and DC have yet to respond to the homophobic comments. [towleroad.] I’m sorry, I just think it’s so funny. These ladies are just so embarrassingly late to the party. lol I can’t be anymore blunt. They can go fuck themselves. ‘I want a boyfriend or husband like X-Men?’” There’s something seriously wrong with this sentence. Do they think X-Men is just one person or something? Or are they saying that somewhere there’s one man that’s dating & marrying all the X-Men at once? Couldn’t they at least PRETEND they’ve ever bought the product they’re claiming to boycott?  One thing I wonder sometimes (in general, not specifically related) is when news reporting will stop using the word “controversial” to describe decisions by media regarding LGBT stories or characters.  Just imagine if they started using “old fashioned” or even “controversial” to describe these boycotts or loud complaints.  It’s true. I once saw a movie about a gay couple. It totally made me wanna marry a man.

finite-whitewashing: sectumsempraroleplay: Duncan Inglebee | 17 | 6th year | Ravenclaw | Pureblood | Nathaniel Buzolic Nobody knows why Duncan was sorted into Ravenclaw, except for Duncan. He doesn’t put much effort, if any, into his classes. He’s not incredibly intelligent. He’s reckless. He’s crude. He would have been better suited for Gryffindor or Slytherin. Yet, here he is, dressed in blue and bronze robes and reminding everyone just how much more attractive he is than everyone else. He’s cocky and brazen, claims to be best friends with firewhiskey, and brags endlessly about all the women he’s slept with. Essentially, he’s an ass, but not without reason. His heart was broken at the young age of fourteen by a much older student. Instead of getting over it, he built this facade he presents to everyone to ensure it doesn’t happen again, because truthfully, Duncan is every bit the sensitive gentleman his mother, whom he’s very close with, raised him to be. It’s only a matter of time before another woman sneaks her way into his heart and discovers who he really is. Romantic woes aside, he enjoys Care of Magical Creatures, Quidditch, and sneaking off to the kitchens in the middle of the night for a private feast. Ships: Duncan/Savannah Fawcett, Duncan/Flora Carrow Status: OPEN THIS IS DUNCAN: DUNCAN IS BROWN/BLACK. DUNCAN IS NOT A BUZOLIC LOOK-A-LIKE. I’M NOT SURE EXACTLY WHAT RACE HE’S SUPPOSED TO BE, BUT HE IS DEFINITELY, DEFINITELY, NOT WHITE. Okay, this is getting outta hand. A fucking Quidditch player from the video game? I sure as hell don’t remember him from the books. Who cares, honestly, that he is absolutely NOT WHITE? other than tumblr RP’ers I guess.
